Dennis Kucinich appeared on "America's Election HQ" on Fox News Channel with E.D. Hill yesterday afternoon.  I knew the man was a bit nutty and hell-bent on getting President Bush impeached and removed from office.  I sort of thought that he was odd, but now I know that he is ALSO a liar.  

Kucinich parroted the line about "one-million dead Iraqis" while on Fox.  E.D. Hill did not acknowledge it and the interview wrapped.  I would have POUNCED on that because it is a well documented fact that the claim of "one-million dead Iraqis" has been covered in, this is me being polite, The Yellow Flag of CaCa!!

In fact, the only ones who are asserting this Yellow Flag of Caca claim are left-wing zealot groups.  Type in the phrase "one million dead Iraqis" at your favorite search engine and look at the blog sites that come up.  Every single one of them is absolute crap...UNTIL my site is indexed by Google and it appears in the mix.

So, until that time, click on that link and it will give you a Google search on that phrase and you will see Daily Koz, Huffington Post and others.  The first one that came up when I did this search on Thursday was a group called "Just Foreign Policy.org" that has such open-minded board members as Tom Hayden and Julian Bond.  (For those who do not know me well, yes, that IS sarcasm!)

Have Iraqis died since March 2003?  Yes.  Have their deaths been due to the United States and over 60 partner nations and the invasion?  Some.  

But ask yourself this big question.  How many Iraqis died during the 35 year reign of Saddam Hussein due to his actions?  Some estimate over 2 million, though not all of them were fed into a wood chipper by his sons.   And that number may be greater. 

Now, I do not bring THAT up to justify the war in Iraq.  Personally, that argument needs to go away.  It's done, now we need to finish it properly and get out.  Just like we have in Germany, Japan, Korea, Kosovo, etc. 

The facts are the facts.  The CaCa is CaCa.  Do not buy into it from EITHER side of the political spectrum.

These groups who bring it up hate America when a person with an "R" behind their name is in the White House.  The groups hate it more when the Congress is led by those with that same letter of the alphabet behind their names.  And when people with the fourth letter of the alphabet are in power, they tell us how great things are or were.  Like back in 1977 until early 1981.  Ah, good times.

In other words, you cannot trust them.

Nor can you trust their polar opposites.

Who can you trust?

Isn't that obvious?  Your favorite host of your favorite morning show here in Jefferson City. 

OK, OK....when I come up with someone better, I'll let you know.

And now for something really important.  Last night was the season premiere of "Burn Notice" on USA.  

LOVE this show!!

It is described as an action-comedy.  If you haven't seen it, make an effort to check it out.  USA is well known for their show marathons and I am sure that they will replay, again, the first season episodes.

OR, you can be like me and get the DVD.   Actually, it was a Father's Day gift.

Well anyhow, we watched the last episode, a two parter, before the  premiere.  Nerdy?  Yeah, maybe.

In other words, I recommend that you become acquainted with Michael Westen. 

Very good start to the second season.  I was afraid that I would be let down, but that didn't happen.

Oh, are you a Dish Network subscriber here in Mid-Missouri and you can't get KRCG/CBS?  Maybe this can help.  Shoot me an e-mail and I'll get you the account number for the $50.

Have a Great Weekend!
